CHAPTER 5. NJIT ADMINISTRATION

This chapter addresses Standard 5 of the Characteristics of Excellence in Higher Education: Administration.

NJIT has, by tradition and intention, been led by an Office of the President which is actively engaged in overseeing the university. NJIT’s administrative structures and services are designed to fulfill the university’s mission of instruction, research, economic development, and service. Highly articulated information and decision-making systems support the work of administrative leaders, clear documentation is present, and periodic review is conducted. Challenges faced by the university, such as constrained national and state budgets, are anticipated and managed to facilitate mission articulation.
